BIND Utilities-9.10.2

Introduction to BIND Utilities

BIND Utilities is not a separate
package, it is a collection of the client side programs that are
included with BIND-9.10.2. The BIND package includes the client side programs
nslookup,
dig and host. If you install BIND server, these programs will be installed
automatically. This section is for those users who don't need the
complete BIND server, but need
these client side applications.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.7
platform.
